[E] [B] [A]
[C#m] We [C#] [C#m] are proud [E] individuals [A]
driven [C#] for the city, [C#m] but the flame [E] couldn't go much [A]
higher.
We [C#m] [C#] [C#m]
find God [E] and religions [A] to [C#m] paint us with [C#] salvation, [C#m] but no one, [E] no nobody [A] can give you [C#m] the power to rise over and [A] over [E] again.
So [C#m] this island has become the nomad, [E] [G#m] the earth, and [A] it's a freedom.
[C#]
All [C#m] that [C#] life left dripping [B] down the walls of a dream that [A] cannot breathe in this [E] harsh reality.
[F#] [C#m] Mass [C#] confusion, but [E]
this earth now [A] [C#m] our cold society [F#] from which we'll rise [B]
[G#m] [A] over [E] again.
[C#m] Through this iron sky the vastness comes in our minds.
[G#] Oh, for freedom, [G#m] the [F#] gift of [E] freedom.
[C#]
You just got to hold on.
You just got [A] to hold on.
[E] [A]
[B] [E] [A]
[E] [C#m]
[B] For [G#]
those who can hear me I say, do not [B] despair.
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of [A] greed, [F#] the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
[D#] The hate of men will pass and [C#] dictators die, [G#] and the power they took from the people will [B] return to the people.
And so long as men die, [A] liberty will never [E] perish.
Don't give yourselves to [F#] these unnatural [D#] men, machine men with machine [C#m] minds and machine hearts.
You are not machines, you are [B] not cattle, you are men.
You the people have the power [A] to make this life [E] free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful [C#m] adventure.
Let us use [A] that power, let us all [C#m] unite and we'll rise [C#m] [B] over and [A] over again.
[E] [C#] Through this iron sky the vastness [C#m] comes in our minds.
[B] Oh, for freedom, [A] the gift of freedom.
[E] [C#] The gift of freedom from [C#m] which we'll rise.
